Rippon Lea House and Gardens

Rippon Lea House & Gardens is the last of Australia’s great privately owned 19th century suburban estates. Designed and built 1868 in the Romanesque style, the mansion is surrounded by a beautifully maintained original Victorian pleasure garden which is of international significance. The spacious mansion retains much of the lavish Victorian decoration from its original owners, the Sargood family, but today reflects the elegance of the era ‘Between the Wars’ when the Jones family played host to Melbourne’s most fashionable society.

Rippon Lea House & Gardens is one of several National Trust listed properties within Victoria. Its magnificent gardens provide several fantastic garden wedding locations as well as a perfect setting for a Sunday picnic.

This unique and divine garden wedding ceremony venue in Melbourne is the perfect location for a couple who want privacy on their special day. The property allows only one wedding at a time, therefore ensuring that you have exclusive use of the space for your wedding.
